Flint Catholic Podcast

First, we go over the USCCB document, North American Final Document for the Continental Stage of the 2021-2024 Synod. (https://www.usccb.org/synod) Trust me, we have a good discussion and we skip all the boring parts.

After the break, we talk about how we CELEBRATE Easter!

In the first segment, we talk about the book, Body of Proof: The 7 Best Reasons to Believe in the Resurrection of Jesus--and Why It Matters Today by Jeremiah Johnston. (https://www.amazon.com/Body-Proof-Reasons-Resurrection-Jesus/dp/0764230832/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1PFUUL9MYXMF6&keywords=body+of+proof&qid=1681673369&sprefix=body+of+proof%2Caps%2C128&sr=8-1)

After the break, we examine 7 different ways to incorporate the Resurrection into your daily life!

Our apologies for the audio in the second segment - we didn't hear it was peaking like that until after we recorded the segment.

Today, we talk about the Asbury Outpouring at Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky. The revival took place between February 8-23.

After the break, we talk about how we can direct conversations toward God with people who might not ordinarily want to talk about God.

Today, we talk about the violence that took place in East Lansing on February 3rd. Are there any real solutions out there?

After the break, we talk about Fr. Tony's recent pilgrimage to Rome!

Today we talk about Catholic Music. I recently found out that an old  friend of mine started a Catholic record label called Enemy Love  Records. You can find them at enemyloverecords.com  

The music video featured in the episode can be found here.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4trj_OgTRbM&ab_channel=DavidKruseMusic 

After the break, we talk about Baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Today, we talk about Pope Francis' 3 year old motu proprio, Vos Estis Lux Mundi. Not sure what that is? Listen and find out!  After the break, we answer some questions we recently fielded from a high school student. These are really good questions!

Today, we start with Proposition 3 that will show up on the Michigan ballot this November. Proposition 3 is deceptively dangerous and has many ramifications that need to be known by the voters. 

After the break, we talk about Catholic Schools because the Vatican recently released a document about Catholic Schools.  We take a shallow dive into that document and relate it to our experiences working in a Catholic School.

After the break, we play a back to school game.

Holy Family 2022 Bible Study

Wisdom Study

Scripture and the Tradition of the Catholic Church provide an abundance of wisdom, though it can often be challenging to apply it to our lives. In this eight-part study, Jeff Cavins and Thomas Smith examine biblical wisdom as it relates to daily life. Drawing on the wisdom literature of the Bible—Proverbs, Wisdom, Sirach, and Ecclesiastes— 

Wisdom: God’s Vision for Life will teach you how to actively seek sound guidance and increase your sense of peace in navigating life. In everything from friendships to finances, from making decisions to attaining peace of mind, Scripture offers a vision for happiness and well-being. With this program, you will learn how to gather, gain, and grow in wisdom, and you will experience the joy it brings to your life. 

Where: St Joseph Center 

When: Wednesday evenings 7 pm to 8:30 pm

October 5, 12, 19, 26 / November 2, 9, 16, 30

After the break, we talk Canon Law! Recently, Nancy Pelosi has been told that she is not to be admitted to communion in the diocese of San Francisco, and we look at that issue in light of this document and Canon 915.

Today we explore the phenomenon of miraculous healings in the Scripture along with miraculous healings we see today.  On Friday, May 20th, at 6pm at St. Mary in Flint, a healing service will take place. After the break, Patrick Brennan joins us to continue the discussion on healing.
